LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
We acknowledge that this land on which we are gathered today is part of the
ancestral land of the Chippewa, Odawa, and Potawatomi peoples, referred
to collectively as the Anishinaabeg. It is through the connection of the
Anishinaabeg with the spirit of the land, water and air that we recognize their
unique cultures, traditions, and values. Together as treaty people, we have a
shared responsibility to act with respect for the environment that sustains all
life, protecting the future for those generations to come.
